Greece

7 Days, 6 Nights
Start this adventure in the ancient city of Athens. You’ll have a full day/night to explore, take a tour, and enjoy Greek food and nightlife. From Athens, we’ll continue through the Aegean Sea, taking local ferries to the Cyclades Islands. We begin with Naxos, a lesser known island of the group but more untouched with a more local feel. Indulge in a little sun soaking and take the time to uncover remote ruins, gorgeous beaches and outstanding scenery. We’ll continue on to the stunning coastline of Santorini where no photos need filters and Italian wine will flow beneath an unbelievable sunset.
